Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of your appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a competent person. The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.
Energy saving tips
To avoid unnecessarily long drying times and high consumption of energy:
Make sure that your laundry is
thoroughly spun before drying. The higher the spin, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy and time during drying.
– Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for the programme being used (see Programme chart).
Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading gives a poorer quality of drying and may cause unnecessary creasing.
Make sure the room in which the dryer is located is well ventilated.
Make sure the fluff filters are clean before using the dryer.
Check the condenser unit from time to time and clean it when necessary.

Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, installation, use and maintenance. Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.

the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Before setting up the machine, check it for any externally visible
Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on
Correct use
The tumble dryer is only intended
for drying fabrics which have been washed in a water solution, marked on the manufacturer's care label as being suitable for tumble drying. "Dry cleaning kits" for freshening up garments in a tumble dryer are increasingly available on the market. If using, do so at your own risk, and follow the instructions provided on the packaging. Any other applications may be dangerous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.
The electrical safety of this
machine can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
6
Warning and Safety instructions
The machine is built in accordance
with current safety requirements. Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved technician. Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.
If the connection cable is faulty it
must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the machine guarantee.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
In the event of a fault or for
cleaning purposes, the machine is only completely isolated from the electiricty supply when:
it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or it is switched off at the mains, or
the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Operation
This equipment may only be used
in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
The dryer must not be used without
the fluff filters in place or if the fluff filters are damaged in any way.
The fluff filters must be thoroughly
dried after cleaning. If they are still damp or wet when replaced there is a risk of faults occurring when the machine is used.
If the water is drained externally
through the drain hose instead of being collected in the condensed water container, make sure the drain hose is securely attached if you hang it in a sink or basin to avoid the hose slipping and the water causing damage.
Condensed water is not drinking
water. It can cause health problems in both people and animals.
Always keep the area around the
machine free of dust and fluff. Dust drawn into the machine can, over time, cause blockages in the condenser unit.
The dryer must not be used without the condenser unit in place.
Do not install the machine in a
room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the machine may not be able to operate properly. There is a risk of damage if the condensed water is allowed to freeze in the pump, hoses and / or condensed water container. The ambient room temperature should be between +2°C and +35°C.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
To prevent the risk of fire the
following textiles must not be dried in this machine:
fabrics which contain a large
proportion of rubber, foam rubber or rubber like materials.
items which contain padding or
fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets). items which have been treated with
inflammable cleaning agents. items which have been splashed with
hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances.
– items which have been soiled with
oils or residues containing grease (kitchen oils, cosmetics etc.).
– items soiled with wax or other
chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths).
– items which have not been
thoroughly cleaned and which are still soiled with grease or oil, e.g. workwear. Such clothing may require a heavy duty detergent to get them clean. If necessary consult the detergent manufacturer for advice.
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the
door, as this can cause the machine to tip up.
Safety with children
This machine is not a toy. To avoid
the risk of injury keep children away from the machine at all times and supervise them whilst you are using it. Do not allow children to play on or near it or to play with its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele.
If non-Miele parts are used with this machine, guarantee, performance and product liability claims may be invalidated.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine,
switch it off at the wall socket and unplug it. Render the plug useless and cut off the cable directly behind the machine. This should be done by a competent person.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the danger
of: –
children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it.
pets or other small animals climbing into it.

A Sort the laundry
To ensure an even drying result separate out the washed laundry and sort it according to: . . . . . the drying level required . . . the type of fibre or weave
. . size . . the moisture content after spinning.
Make sure that objects e.g.
,
detergent dispensing balls have been removed from the laundry. They could melt, and cause damage to the dryer or the laundry.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
– Fasten duvet covers and pillow
cases to prevent small items from being trapped inside them.

In some circumstances the following message also appears:
Clean the filters
Please check all the possible causes and switch the dryer off and then back on again.
Ventilation to and from the dryer may be insufficient (e.g because it is installed in a small room). This has caused the temperature in the room to rise sharply.
The fluff filters are clogged up with fluff or were still wet when they were replaced.
The laundry has not been spun sufficiently.
The tumble dryer has been overloaded.
Metallic components, e.g. zips have prevented the dryer from registering the correct moisture level in the laundry.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fibres can block up the condenser unit.
The vents below the door are blocked.
The load consisted of different fabrics.
Open a door or window while the machine is in operation for increased air flow.
Remove any fluff.The fluff filters must be

Problem solving guide
Problem Possible cause Remedy The condenser unit
service panel will not shut.
Water leaks from the machine after the condenser unit has been cleaned.
Items made of synthetic fibres are charged with static electricity after drying.
There is a build up of fluff.
Feather filled pillows smell after drying.
The inner cover of the condenser unit has not been locked properly and/or the condenser unit has not been positioned correctly.
Fluff has collected at the bottom of the condenser unit housing.
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are being worn and washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form and has been established by research institutes to have no appreciable effect on the lifetime of fabric.
Feathers are a natural product and this is quite normal.
Ensure that the
condenser unit is positioned correctly and lock the cover.
Check the rubber seals.
Use a cloth to remove
any fluff from the inside of the condenser unit housing.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric conditioner to the final rinse in the washing machine or a fabric conditioner sheet to the load in the dryer.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and can be easily removed (see Cleaning and Care).
The smell will dissipate after sufficient airing.

Installation
Installation site
Make sure the dryer door can be
,
opened without hindrance after installation.
Transporting the machine to its installation site
When moving the machine you can hold it by the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the dryer. To manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing case to its installation site you will also need to hold it by the front feet.
Building under a continous worktop / in a row of kitchen units
The dryer should not be installed next to a refrigerator or freezer. The warm air expelled from the rear of the dryer would increase the temperature around the refrigerator's/freezer's heat exchanger causing the compressor to run continuously. If it is not possible to install the dryer anywhere else, then the refrigerator/freezer must be sealed off from the dryer.
If you wish to push your machine under a worktop and there is space to do this without removing the lid, a building under kit is not necessary. Otherwise the building under kit is essential.
The building under kit* must be
,
fitted by a suitably qualified person. The machine lid is replaced by a coverplate. It is essential that the coverplate is fitted to ensure electrical safety.
The building under kit is supplied with its own installation instructions.
N.B. When built under running times may be longer.
– The electrical socket must be
located in an accessible position
near the machine. With niche heights of: – 840 mm, longer screw feet* are
required. –
870/885 mm - 915/930 mm, one or
two height adjustment frames* are
required. * Available as an optional accessory
from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department.
Replacing the lid
If the lid has been removed in order to fit a cover plate, ensure that, if the lid is replaced, it fits securely into the rear holders. Otherwise, it is not properly secure for transport.
39
Installation
Levelling the machine
The machine must be perfectly level to ensure safe and proper operation.
Room in which the dryer is located
Air taken in for use in the drying process will be warm when it is expelled from the rear of the dryer. This expelled air heats up the air in the room. It is therefore very important to ensure that the room is adequately ventilated, particularly if the dryer is located in a small room. Otherwise running times and energy consumption could be increased.
Washer - dryer stack
The tumble dryer can also be combined with a Miele washing machine in a washer-dryer stack. To do this the appropriate stacking kit* (WTV) to match your washing machine is required.
* Available as an optional accessory from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department.
^
The screw feet can be adjusted to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
,
The ventilation gaps in the plinth must not be covered over as this would prevent a sufficient intake of air.
40
,
Stacking kits must be fitted by a
suitably qualified fitter.

Installation
External condensed water outlet
When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can also be drained off directly if the machine is installed near a sink, drain outlet etc. so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied.
The drain hose (approx. 2 m long) is stored in the dryer. It must be pulled out of the dryer to its full extent if condensed water is to be drained externally. Maximum delivery head: 1 m.
If it is not long enough, an extension hose is available as an optional accessory through your dealer or from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
Setting up the drain hose
